The revised city ordinances were printed by The Northwestern this week. The ordinances made a good sized book and it took a mighty rush to deliver the book on schedule time. In addition to this book, this office printed six sale bills, a twenty-four page hog catalogue and a number of smaller jobs. This accounts for The Northwestern being late this week, but with the addition of more help we hope this will not occur again. E. A. Keeler returned from Kansas City, Mo., last Saturday. He spent several months there attending the Missouri School of Auctioneering and graduated from that institution. This school is the largest school of its kind in the world, and one who graduates from it is perfectly able and compe tent to cry general farm and live stock sales. Mr. Keeler has already booked several dates and with the diligent study he has made of his chosen profession success is sure to crown his efforts. A. C. Ogle has filed for the demo cratic nomination for sheriff and to date is the only man who has filed for that place on the democratic ticket. Mr. Ogle is well known to most of the people of Sherman county. He has been a resident of Sherman county for a number of years and has been in business in Loup City for the past seven years. We believe Mr. Ogle Is amply qualified to hold the position to which he aspires and if he secures the nomination, can be depended upon to make a strong race for election. , Daily sells for less. i _ Try Chase's first—it pays.

Mr. Lewandowski will also purchase new stock for his store on this trip and expects to have a new and com plete line of spring goods on display in a very short time. Lamont L. Stephens has filed for the democratic nomination for County Attorney and the chances are that he will have no opposition for the nomi nation or at the general election. Mr. Stephens is a candidate for a second term, has filled the office in a credit able manner and is an obliging and efficient county official. The road west of town is reported to be in bad condition and when the spring thaw comes it will probably be one vast mud hole. Ice has clogged up the river at the head of the old mill race and as a consequence the road and land adjoining has been flooded from the water that was di verted from the river and through the race. It is a field of ice, which makes good skating, but may cause trouble later on. One of our solid and substantial citizens, T. H. Eisner has filed for the democratic nomination for County Treasurer at the April primary elec tion. Mr. Eisner has been a resident of Luop City for a good many years and has a wide acquaintance all over the county.

Hewett's High Class Novelty enter tainers showed at Loup City Wednes day evening to an appreciative audi ence. This is the best show that lias been here this season. They will hold the boards at the opra house again this evening and will, no doubt, have a packed house. This show has two big features, the Five Musical Hewett’s and Adolph and Raymond, athletes, supported by a strong company. From here the Hewett’s go to Sargent to fill a return date. Among the political announce ments in The Northwestern this week is that of Miss Pearle Needham, an nouncing that she is a candidate for the democratic nomination for county treasurer at the coming primary elec tion. Miss Needham has held the position of deputy treasurer for nine years, which is evidence enough to convince anyone that she is perfectly capable of handling the affairs of the office. It is believed that Miss Need ham will be a strong candidate for the nomination. Try Chase’s first—it pays. L. A. Williams has filed for the republican nomination for sheriff. Mr. Williams has held the office of sheriff for several terms and at the last election was re-elected by an over whelming majority. He has handled the affairs of the office in the past in a manner that has pleased the voters and tax payers of the county and makes the race again for re-nomi nation and re-election upon his past record. During his term of office Mr. Williams has formed a large acquaint ance all over the county, which makes him a strong man in the race. = GIRLS DO NOT WANT A LIFE OF POVERTY; THEY PRE i FER MEN WITH MONEY.
